I figure it's going to take a couple of days to hit me. This is so weird. Most of the time I break down before they die. I guess it's stressed me so much with the others that my mind has learned to shut down to keep me from having more issues. At least that's what it feels like.

Oh God, speaking of everyone's fish dying, I just found Zekie dead literally ten minutes ago. I have no clue why, it just looked like he was sleeping on the steps of the cute little pagoda I got him. He was always a little bit sickly, but he was totally fine other than some problems with his fins. I guess he was just old when I got him. Goddbye, sweetheart, I'll always love you.

Well, I buried most of mine in the yard, but I buried Nina's body in a flowerpot and planted flowers above her. They're thriving, and I keep finding all kinds of life taking shelter in them. It's a nice way to memorialize any fish. I wish I could do it for all of them but I can't have a ton of flower pots cluttering up my patio! lol Anyway just an idea if you don't want to put him in the trash.
